Empyrean Series Overview:
Initially described as "Harry Potter with dragons," the series, while starting similarly, evolves into a more Twilight-esque magical fantasy romance with explicit details.
The narrative centers on Violet Sorrengail, a seemingly delicate young woman compelled by her powerful mother to join a perilous dragon rider academy. Violet must overcome personal weaknesses, navigate complex relationships with her mother, a former friend, and a seemingly hostile boy, all while uncovering hidden truths about her world and a burgeoning romance.
Kindle Unlimited Access:

The first two Empyrean novels, Fourth Wing and Iron Flame, are currently free for Kindle Unlimited subscribers. Download them through your Kindle account before the offer expires.
